Icarus

The pride and delight, are the main enemies of the development of mankind. We create revolutionary designs and implements wildest imagination that you could enjoy its own majesty. We like possessed, rushing forward without seeing the edge of the cliff. We rely on the results achieved in the hope that they will save, and our lives.

This is equivalent to what would have to travel through the universe in huge wagons pulled by horses of fire. What we have achieved a lot, very much. We can be proud of themselves, to exalt the role of man, even more than before. But this is not enough, that would go beyond the limits of our capabilities.

We treat patients, saving the victims of natural disasters, we get down to the bottom of the oceans and go out into space. But it continues to produce Selfie stick, staring at ads and think about the rest. In this way we could deal with in the past. What would qualitatively relax and rest, not necessarily develop. Enough simply lying on the couch and the contemplation of the ceiling. But is it worthy of man?

On the other hand, many justified earned that right. After all, everyone defines status in society. Some people think that the slightest effort should be compensated. And someone obsessed, working day and night, distracted only snack and forgotten in a five-hour sleep.

The funds available to each of us, allow to lead a life that would be envied by ancient emperors. In refrigerators stored fruit, water flows from the tap the desired temperature, the heat in their homes and furniture (your convenience) will surpass the royal feather beds.

The moment came when our desires can come true in a few days. And someone, quite satisfied with this development. Someone is enough to be in the comfort and lead a quiet and peaceful life. But is it worthy?

We ourselves have come up with concepts such as pride, honor and dignity. Sami are trying to get rid of them in favor of obscure "freedoms" of this century. Who is "trending" to be cynical, brutal and independent. But how useful such a person be? Not burn the wings of those who are trying to climb on the podium for the status?

You can and should strive to occupy high positions and influence on the broad masses of people. But to do it is solely for the sake of something bigger. Do not hold the power, for the sake of what it would feel. And for the use and purchase of something bigger. For larger social group.

We flew too close to the sun. And we, or roasted through, having lost the wings, or change it to something else. Change yourself, and feel free entry into the glowing flames of unknown future.
